A built in overflow is the most efficient method of draining aquarium water to a filter. If your aquarium does not have built-in overflow, CPR Continuous Siphon Overflows/Prefilters are the best means for getting water from an aquarium to a filter system without expensive modifications to the tank. They quietly skim up to six times more water than units with tubes.

The advantages of CPR Continuous Siphon Overflows/Prefilters include:

Adjustable water level allows you to easily change the level in your tank.

Black top reduces algae growth.

Plastic screen to prevent fish loss.

Quiet operation.

Fantastic

Comments:The wet dry filter is fantastic. Have a well stocked (they breed like rabbits) 50g cichlid tank. The water stays crystal clear, the fish are all healthy, and the filter replacement is cheap. Definatly reccomend getting this system. The upfront cost is higher than a typical HoB filter but not having pay 8 dollars a cartrige once a month really makes it much cheaper in the long run.
Only complaint is that the lid is kind of hard to get off in tight compartments. If you have a tall stand or are putting the sump on the side of the tank then its a non issue.

Comments:This is a good product. Very well built. If you buy the kit designed for up to a 60 gallon tank, you might not actually get a funtional kit when it is purchased. The hose going from the overflow to the sump will not fit the connectors, so out of the box, the kit cannot function. You need to spend an addition 15 dollars on a sister site of CPR to find the adapters and have them shipped to you. The bad thing is, you dont know these adapters are needed until you read the instructions with the kit. The quality of the product is outstanding. Whether the product can actually be considered a "kit" is another thing as the word "kit" implies that additional parts will not needed once it has been delivered. I would have given this a MUCH higher rating if it was shipped as a true "kit". To put it in a different prospective, if you buy a model airplane "kit"...one wouldn't assume you have to buy the wings seperately.
